6D
0 - 10
1 - 25
2 - 25-25
3 - 50-50

At TC -1 or lower bet ZERO

To have a risk of losing the whole BR under 20% you'd best have 10,000
Tell you what - I'd shoot 5k or less like this >>

0 - 0
1 - 20
2 - 20-20
3 - 30-30

At TC -0- or lower bet ZERO

A Ploppy's Plea, Don't Cry for Me

Don't cry for me Advantage Player
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance

And as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world they were all I desired

They are illusions
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me

Don't cry for me Advantage Player

The Riddle of the Dealer's Bust Card

Odds are it will work out just the way Fred said. !
Thanks Asian for the backup. To try to clarify this for the OP in layman's terms, suppose you're playing with one ploppy on your left. You both have 14 while the dealer's up-card is a 6. You properly stand and the ploppy vassilates over what to do. Since the dealer is the ploppy's mother, she flashes her hole card -- a 10! Then she takes out the next three cards in the shoe and turns them up. They are 10-10-5. Now she turns them face-down, scrambles them and puts them back in the shoe.

So we know that if the ploppy stands, the dealer will bust 2 times out of 3. But how often will the dealer bust if the ploppy hits???

Well, when the ploppy hits, 2 times out of 3 he will draw a 10. That will leave one 10 and one 5 in the shoe for the dealer. Those two times the dealer will bust once and make 21 once. But that third time that the ploppy hits, he will take the 5. That one time, the dealer must bust! So then, if the ploppy hits, the dealer will still bust 2 times out of 3.

Back to the drawing board, Genius - This is ALL wrong. It demonstrates a common confusion regarding the issue of bigger spreads when applied to greater #decks.

Redo your betting suggestions. This time use the max bet as the constant, not the min bet. zg

Example:

1D -
25
50
100

2D -
10
20
50
100

6D
5
10
20
40
80
100

ETC
Yep. ZG is correct.
